Make sure you have your exact wireless details, specially your wireless password. If you have the information follow the steps below:

. Be in the same room where the router is.
. Plug the power cable to the extender. Push the reset button on the extender for 10 seconds then release. When the Power LED icon turns solid green. Using a wireless devices which is not connected to the router or any wifi connection, browse wireless network within the area and look for the extenders default wireless name.
. The default wireless network name should be Netgear_Ext.
.When you see the name connect to it and should reroute you to the extenders page or you can access it by opening a browser.
. It will give you steps how to connect the extender to your network. Just follow the instruction and make sure you will add the correct password.
. When you have successfully synchronize the extender, you can unplug the extender and place it back on the location where you are getting slow wireless connection.

If you can not find the PIN underneath the device. You have an options as well to connect the computer using the Network key ( Wireless Password) which is a lot easier. Check if you have an option to the message will be something like " I want to enter my network key instead".

As per your description it seems you do have a wireless router
check with the model of the smart TV that you have and check for WLAN feature(possibly smart should have one)
is yes you can directly connect to the router from the TV without the adapter
Thanks!!!!
